Hundreds of firefighters backed by water-dropping planes and helicopters struggled for a third day Thursday to tackle a wildfire burning through a pine forest on the Greek island of Evia.
Nearly 400 firefighters, 11 helicopters and 13 planes including two from Italy and one from Spain sent in following Greece's request for help fought the blaze which broke out hours before dawn on Tuesday and has ravaged a nature reserve.
The fire department said Thursday evening that the wildfire was "developing."
